Locate the Interior Fuse Box in Your Camry

In the 2021–2024 Toyota Camry, the interior fuse box is located under the dashboard on the driver's side, near the OBD‑II port and hood release. You'll need to crouch down and look up—it's behind a plastic cover that you can remove by hand (no tools required). The cover usually has a diagram showing fuse assignments, though it can be hard to read.

Identify Fuse Slots for Your Camry

You'll need to identify two types of power if you're using a two-wire hardwire kit:

• Constant (BAT) power – for maintaining settings or experimenting with parking mode
• Switched (ACC) power – powers the cam when ignition is on (this is the standard way to run the cam)

Based on owner experience and 2021-2024 Camry fuse diagrams, here are recommended fuse slots:

Important: Always verify with a multimeter or test light. The orientation of the fuse tap matters—the wire should be on the "load" side, not the "battery" side, to protect the circuit properly.

Install Add‑a‑Fuse Taps in Your Camry

Take your add‑a‑fuse taps. If you're using an empty slot, you only need to put the dash cam's fuse in the top slot of the tap. If you're piggybacking on an existing fuse, place the original fuse in the bottom slot and the dash cam fuse (3A–5A recommended) in the top slot.

Orientation tip for Camry: Before inserting the dash cam fuse, plug the tap into the slot (without the extra fuse) and check for voltage at the wire with your multimeter. If there's no voltage, flip the tap 180°—this ensures the tap is oriented correctly so that both circuits are protected.

Connect the Hardwire Kit

Your hardwire kit will have two or three wires:

• Red (or yellow): Constant 12V+ (BAT)
• Yellow (or red): Switched 12V+ (ACC) – some kits combine both into one if you don't need constant
• Black: Ground

Connect the red wire to the add‑a‑fuse from your constant fuse slot, and the yellow wire to the switched slot. Secure connections with crimp connectors or solder and heat shrink.

Find a Good Ground Point in Your Camry

Look for a bolt or nut attached to bare metal near the fuse box. A common ground location in the Camry is a bolt on the metal bracket above the fuse box or near the hood release mechanism. Loosen it, slide a ring terminal under it, and tighten securely. Ensure there's no paint or rust at the contact point for a good electrical connection.

Route the Cable to Your Dash Cam

Now you need to get the wire from the fuse box up to the rearview mirror area where your Wefoka is mounted. Follow these steps for a clean, hidden install in your Camry:

• Tuck the wire behind the dashboard trim, heading upward toward the driver's side A‑pillar.
• At the A‑pillar, carefully tuck the wire behind the rubber door seal and then behind the pillar trim. You may need to gently pry the trim—it usually clips on and off. Warning: Route the wire behind the side curtain airbag, not in front of it.
• Continue along the headliner edge toward the mirror. The headliner is flexible enough to tuck the wire in without removing anything.
• Route the wire to the location of your Wefoka camera. You can use small adhesive clips if needed, but most of the wire can be hidden.

One Camry owner noted: "I ran the wire behind the glove compartment and up the passenger A pillar and behind the windshield header trim." The process is similar on the driver's side, which is often easier due to the fuse box location.

Connect to Dash Cam & Test

Plug the hardwire kit's USB or power connector into your Wefoka dash cam. Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Start the engine and verify that the camera powers on. If you connected constant power, the camera may stay on for a while (depending on your hardwire kit's settings) or immediately turn off with the ignition—this depends on your wiring choices.

Test the G‑sensor and recording functions to ensure everything works. One Camry owner mentioned: "So far only has to do one full reboot and format the micro SD card which was during the installation process."

Remove the Mirror Cover

As you did for the Wefoka installation, remove the factory plastic cover behind the mirror. Slide it down gently to release the clips, then pull it away. You'll see the mirror's wiring connector.

Identify Power and Ground Wires in Your Camry

Wire colors can vary by trim and options (auto-dimming mirror, Homelink, etc.). You must use a multimeter to confirm. However, based on Camry owner reports, here are common wire functions:

You must verify with a multimeter: With the car off, check for voltage on suspected constant wires. With the car on (accessory mode), check for voltage on switched wires. Ground wires will show 0V and continuity to chassis ground.

For basic operation (cam on with ignition), you want switched power and ground. If you find a constant wire, you could potentially tap that for parking mode experiments, but be mindful of the circuit's current capacity.

Use a Mirror Tap Kit or Solder

You can purchase a pre‑made mirror tap kit (like Dongar or similar) that plugs inline with the factory connector. These are often vehicle-specific, so look for one compatible with Toyota/Lexus. Alternatively, use Posi‑Taps or carefully solder wires to the back of the connector pins (on the vehicle side, not the mirror side). Many owners successfully tap the switched power and ground wires with Invisicord or similar taps.

Connect to Dash Cam and Test

Route the short wire from the mirror area to your camera. Connect to your Wefoka, start the car, and confirm it powers on. Tuck any excess wire neatly behind the headliner.
